vascular integrity (functions/dysfunctions) including hypertension which are tested experimental
designs to extrapolate in to clinical applications on humans. The laboratory also extensively
works on hypoxia model in rodents with interactions of divalent cationic heavy metals which
influence cell signalling pathways through hif-l s gene expression.

kind in this part of Karnataka.
Objectives:
To carry out the basic research in human genetics, exploring molecular basis of
neurological, psychiatric and other rare genetic disorders.
To explore the molecular basis of growth factors.
To teach genetics and impart training on molecular genetics research methodologies for
man power development.
To provide advanced diagnostic facility and genetic counselling to the patients and their
families.
